Sparks High certainly has its fair share of those staff members. One is the school's registrar, Gregg Shugar. There's a reason Sparks High is important to him. He grew up there. A life-long Sparks resident, Shugar grew up attending Alice Maxwell Elementary and Sparks Middle before enrolling at Sparks High. He graduated from SHS in 1988 and a decade later found his way back.
"Sparks High is my school and it's always been my school," Shugar said. "It started back in 1984 when I was freshman here and it's been in my system ever since.
"When I was going here, there were a bunch of kids right down the street who went to middle school with me and they went over to Reed. They looked differently at me, like they went to Reed and thought they were better. I think that's kind of formed the way I feel now. I just love Sparks and the hard-working parents, families and staff we have here."
Understandably, there's a lot of Maroon and Gold in Shugar's clothes closet. He quipped that he doesn't own anything blue before admitting he does have a navy blue Nevada Wolf Pack jacket.
Sparks is the Rail City's oldest high school and it resides in west Sparks where there is less development and more blight. Still, Shugar said he hates the reputation that Sparks High is seen by some as a second-tier school.
"There is a stigma and I can't stand that," he said. "People don't know what goes on at this school. Both of my sons have gone or go here and it's where I want my kids to be. We have great teachers, hard-working kids and not as many problems as people assume. Our teachers are like family. They work hard for the kids here and it was the same way when I was going here. I had so many teachers and coaches help me out when I was here as a student. It just feels right for me to be here now."
Shugar, 43, took a tough route to get to his career at Sparks High. He married young, at 21. A year later, he and his wife Liz had their first child. Shugar initially attended the University of Nevada, but financial burden of taking care of a family took priority. He worked for First Interstate and Wells Fargo banks for the better part of a decade.
In 1999, he joined the football staff of Railroaders coach Rob Kittrell. Soon after he remembered how much he loved Sparks High and the students there. In 2001, Shugar took over as the head freshmen football coach for the Railroaders. He's been either the head freshmen or JV coach since.
Coaching at Sparks in those early years got Shugar's Railroader blood flowing again. He left the banking industry to take over as the school's groundskeeper in October of 2002. Oddly enough, a back injury he suffered while working as the groundskeeper, helped him get a promotion to registrar.
"I was just happy to be here at first. Being in the school district, the groundskeeper job was stable and at that time, banking wasn't so stable. The groundskeeper job was an opportunity to do what I love to do, which is coach and to get in here. Then I got a herniated disc and was out a little bit. I started taking some classes from the school district system and the registrar opportunity arose. My experience at the banks and taking the classes helped. If I had not hurt my back, I probably wouldn't be here."
As registrar, Shugar oversees many of the school's permanent files. He is in charge of student transcripts, registering new students and properly releasing students moving away from SHS. However, there's more to it than that.
"Sometimes, people call me our fifth counselor," Shugar joked. "I talk to quite a few kids every day, especially kids who play for me. I'm more than happy to take the time to help them out."
In addition to being the registrar and freshmen football coach, he also coaches JV baseball. He is the advisor to the school's Block S Club, which is comprised of athletes who share the same goal of improving the school and community. He is the school's public address announcer during the winter basketball season and he organizes countless other activities.
"He's invested here," Sparks High athletic director Rob Kittrell said. "He's an alum, a graduate and he wants to give back everything Sparks High gave him to make it a unique place, a great place.
"From an AD's standpoint, you can count on him when you need help. A lot of times, he puts the school before his own family. He's an amazing guy who truly cares about these kids and families. He'd pretty much do anything for them, including giving them the shirt off his own back."
Given that he works with so many students and he knows many of them come from families scraping by to make ends meet, he admits its pretty special to see Railroader kids succeed.
"We've got kids you never hear about doing great things," Shugar said. "Coaching is awesome but on graduation day, giving diplomas to kids, who people thought would never get one, to see them overcome obstacles in their lives, it's just awesome. Watching these kids succeed and grow is great. The best thing we get is when kids come back and say 'thank you.' That's the pay day right there."
Sparks High is in Shugar's DNA and he's proud of it. He hopes to eventually retire from the school. So how does he hope Railroaders staff and students think of "I just want to be thought of and remembered as somebody that cares and somebody who works hard for kids, giving them guidance when they need it," Shugar said. "A guy who tells them something they need to hear, not always what they want to hear. When all is said and done, I hope the kids see me how I saw my coaches and teachers, just a guy who helped them get to where they are."

The informal meeting, practical and in a small group will allow a direct dialogue and a sharing of knowledge between interested co-organisers and professionals. A great space will be dedicated to practical presentations (for example PowerPoint Presentation, administrative files, city budgets dedicated to restoration of listed buildings, etc…), questions and debates.
The presentations on protection polities and financial supports can be done at the level of listed buildings in the city scale or can be a specific study case concerning one Art Nouveau listed building.

Spencer J. Cox
Spencer J. Cox was born and raised in the town of Fairview. He and his wife, Abby, are the parents of four children. Spencer, the oldest of eight children, and Abby, the fifth of ten siblings, come from large families. They were both raised on farms in Sanpete County, where they learned the value of dedication and hard work.
Spencer and Abby both graduated from North Sanpete High School, Snow College, and Utah State University. Abby received a degree in Special Education, while Spencer earned a BA degree in Political Science with a minor in Spanish. While at USU, Spencer was recognized by his department as the Student of the Year and graduated with a 4.0 grade point average. He then graduated from the Washington and Lee School of Law with honors, while distinguishing himself with several accolades including Law Review.
Upon graduation, Spencer and Abby moved to Davis County where Spencer had the opportunity to serve as a law clerk to Federal District Judge Ted Stewart. Following the clerkship, Spencer began his career as an attorney at the law firm of Fabian and Clendenin in Salt Lake City.
In 2003, Spencer and Abby decided to return and raise their family in rural Utah. Spencer accepted the position of Vice President with CentraCom, a rural telecommunications company. Shortly after arriving, Spencer helped to design and implement an aggressive expansion plan to grow the company's rural footprint and, for the first time, bring service to enterprise customers on the Wasatch Front. Since his arrival, CentraCom has doubled in size from 45 employees to more than 90, despite the severe economic downturn.
During his time in Fairview, Spencer has served as Fairview City Councilman, Fairview City Mayor, Sanpete County Commissioner and is currently serving in the House of Representatives, District 58 (covering most of Sanpete and Juab Counties). Because of this service and his efforts to bring jobs to rural Utah, Spencer was chosen by rural economic development leaders and elected officials to serve as the co-chair (with Lt. Governor Greg Bell) of the Governor's Rural Partnership Board. In that position, Spencer acts as the voice of rural Utah to advise the Governor and Legislature on all issues related to rural economic growth (including public lands). Spencer also serves on Governor's Economic Council.
In his spare time, Spencer loves running as well as camping and hiking with his family throughout Utah's amazing backcountry. He is fluent in Spanish. He also enjoys playing the bass guitar with his brother in a local band.

The Man Who Invented Our World
More than anyone else, Steve Jobs shaped modern technology—and modern life.
I saw the news of Steve Jobs' death on a device that he invented—the iPhone—and I'm writing on another machine that he willed into being: the graphical interface computer. I happen to be using a PC running Windows, with generic hardware I put together myself; technically, only my keyboard was made by Apple. But none of that matters. Just like the touch-screen smartphone and, now, the tablet computer, the PC that you and I use every day became ubiquitous thanks mainly to this one man. I'll go further: Whether you're yearning for a Kindle Fire or a BlackBerry PlayBook, whether you play Angry Birds on an iPod Touch or Google's Nexus Prime, whether you're a Mac or a PC, you've succumbed to Steve Jobs' master plan.
You may consider this praise too broad. After all, the tech industry is unstoppable. Machines progress thanks to the work of thousands of programmers, hardware engineers, assemblers, and research scientists at hundreds of large and small firms in Silicon Valley and around the world. Jobs, who quit college and was never trained in software or hardware engineering, lacked much of the formal expertise needed to power the computer revolution. Jobs didn't make microchips go faster, he didn't increase the capacity of hard drives, he didn't invent optical storage drives, bitmapped graphics, cellular radios, Ethernet, or even the mouse. If Jobs wasn't around, we'd have had all of these advances anyway—and people like Bill Gates, Andy Grove, Michael Dell, and Larry Page would have turned these technologies into computers, phones, and music players.
If Steve Jobs hadn't been around, what might that stuff have looked like? To appreciate how Jobs changed what you do every day, you've only got to look at how entire industries shifted after Jobs pushed Apple into them. Think of the BlackBerry, the Palm Pilot, the Creative Nomad music player, or MS-DOS. These are all perfectly serviceable technologies, things that got the job done. But none of them was transcendent. None was a dream to use, and most were a pain.
More importantly, they all represented the logical, Darwinian end point of major technological trends. The BlackBerry is the obvious result of smaller processors, smaller screens, and better cellular radios. If Research in Motion hadn't created it, someone else would have. The iPhone, though, was not an inevitability. Every single thing about that device was the product of deep research, testing, and unyielding refinement. The "Jesus phone" underlines Jobs' place at the head of this business. While every other company in tech has been shaped by the forces of technological evolution, with their products getting better as chips got faster and cheaper, Jobs had no patience for evolution. He was the intelligent designer.
Jobs' best talent was his ability to spot the pain points in every technology he touched. He could look at anything and tell you why it sucked. This became his standard formula for unveiling new products: He would begin by explaining what was awful about the industry he would soon supplant. Old-style smartphones? They were encumbered with buttons that were there whether you needed them or not, and that remained static for every application you used, leaving very little room for a screen. Portable music players? The ones before the iPod stored too few songs, transferred your music too slowly, didn't catalog your tracks in any useful way, and were too large and ungainly to carry with you. Pre-iPad tablet PCs? If you got him started on those things, you'd be there all day.
There's a school of Jobs hagiography that suggests he personally invented solutions to all these problems. (This is nicely parodied in a story the Onion once ran, "Frantic Steve Jobs Stays Up All Night Designing Apple Tablet.") But although Apple assigned his name to hundreds of patents, Jobs wasn't Apple's idea man. Rather, his role was to separate other people's great ideas from their terrible ones—and to refine the best ideas into workable products. He did this, most famously, with the mouse, a gadget he'd encountered on a trip to Xerox's research facility in Palo Alto in 1979. Jobs instantly saw that it could redefine computing, and he worked feverishly to turn the research into something useful. He cribbed other parts of the Mac from Jef Raskin, a legendary computer interface expert at Apple who'd come up with several of the key concepts for graphical computing.
But Jobs didn't just grab other people's best concepts. He also drew inspiration from other, more far-flung domains. After dropping out of Reed College when he was 17, Jobs bummed around campus looking for something to do. He'd heard about Reed's strong calligraphy program, so he decided to take some classes. "I learned about serif and sans-serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great," he said in a commencement speech at Stanford in 2005 (which is one of the best accounts of his life you'll ever see). "It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating."
He added:
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards 10 years later.
Jobs' logic is hard to argue with here. If he hadn't brought proportional typefaces to the Mac—if the Mac had never existed—it's difficult to think of anyone else who would have. Microsoft? Dell? No way. This sounds like a small thing—so what if we had ugly fonts?—but you could make a similar argument for everything else Jobs pushed for, from touch-screen interfaces to the App Store model of downloading software. These things would never have hit the mainstream if he hadn't come up with them first.

Smith, Vice Chancellor, Administration and Finance
Subject: Hurricane Katrina Recovery – Update #94
Posted: June 6, 2009
Three of our proposals for
permanent building repairs and hazard mitigation
were re-submitted to FEMA based upon the favorable
decisions issued by Charlie Axton's decision team on
May 27th. The three proposals address the Allied
Health/Nursing Building, the Student Residence Hall
and the Resource Center. Once the three proposals have been entered
into the Federal/FEMA automated system, a series of
reviews will occur within the local FEMA offices and
one review at the State level. When the local reviews are successfully
completed, the proposals will be packaged and sent
to Washington, DC
for one additional review. Historically this process has been very time
consuming, but we are working with FEMA to expedite
the process as much as possible.
Clinical faculty and staff from
the Departments of Radiology and Medicine and
Radiology were moved into the Clinical Education
Building. They are occupying spaces on the 3rd and 4th
Floors respectively. Work continues on the 1st and 2nd Floors with
the goal of being ready for those floors to be
reoccupied by the end of June or early July.
The permanent repairs and
mitigation at the Lions/LSU Clinic Building are
beginning to wind down as work nears completion. Furniture is being moved in to spaces in the Cohn
Learning Center on the 6th Floor. Work on the exterior stairwell is
substantially complete. The roof mounted generator has been connected
and fuel lines have been run. The building is now fully powered from the
new switch gear located on the 2nd Floor; well above
the levels of any future floods. The old switch gear, generator and the
associated wiring, piping and electrical panels are
being removed.
The frieze that was moved out
of the Clinical Education Building and installed in
the Library Commons area is going through its final
repair and refinishing. The professional art restorer has been on
site and recently applied a new finish to the piece. Carpet has been installed at the entrance to
the Library and in the back office areas. Miscellaneous finish work is being completed.
The Pharmacology lab
renovations in the MEB are nearing completion. Furniture has been moved into the
administrative area. Network cabling has been completed. Fume hood covers have been installed and the
terrazzo flooring has been repaired. In the MDL #3, the installation of the
support track for the partition walls is complete
and the sound proofing drywall and insulation is in
The plumbing stub ups for the new casework have been
installed and wiring for the new ceiling light
fixtures has begun. Wood and metal wall panels and the associated
trim are being installed throughout the 2nd Floor
lobby in the MEB.
The contractor installed
sheetrock and insulation around the steel partition
track for sound insulation in MDL #3 and the
partition track is in place. The plumbing for the new case work has been
stubbed up. The alcove area for the copy machine across
from MDL #5 was framed up and dry walled.
The flooring contractor
installed carpet at the stairwell entrances of the
Dental School Auditoriums A and B. Acoustical wall panels were frames and
installed in Auditorium A and B. Door hardware for both auditoriums was
installed. Conduit and floor outlets were installed for
the podiums in the auditoriums. Fire alarm devices have been installed in the
auditoriums, the elevator lobby and walkway. The electrical contractor installed
additional conduit and junction boxes for the power
outlets in Room 4202B. The wiring for the AV and Access Grid power
outlets in Room 4202B was run. The A/V contractor installed fans and
auxiliary outlets for their equipment racks in Room
4202B and pulled wiring into the AV racks.
The expansion of the Residence
Hall lobby is progressing. The floor contractor installed floor tile in
front of Residence Hall Managers Office, grouted the
floor tile and sealed the floor throughout the
expanded lobby area. Additional light fixtures were installed and
the track lighting has been roughed in. New sprinkler heads and escutcheons are in
place in the B & C lobby areas. Wires have been run for security cameras. The ceiling beneath the mezzanine between A & B Towers and in the expanded lobby area was
sheet rocked, taped and floated.
The contractor replacing the
Allied Health/Nursing Building roof has made
significant strides. Workers installed base sheet along the
parapet walls on all sides of the roof. The pitch pan for the exhaust fan on the
loading dock side of building has been installed. They installed the cap sheet on the main roof
on the Bolivar and S. Roman St.
sides of the roof and on the elevator penthouse. The aluminum flashing has been installed
along the Bolivar St. and Gravier St.
sides of the roof. The
white cap sheet was installed along
S. Roman Street.
LSUHSC Facility Services staged
temporary air conditioning units and installed
temporary electrical panels to support the temporary
air conditioning for 6th and 7th Floors of the MEB,
Quadrant D in preparation for the replacement of
additional air handling units. The contractor cored and installed new floor
drains in mechanical rooms 2A, 4A, 6B and 7B. The old AHU 6D, AHU 7D and associated
supporting equipment was removed. The new AHU 6D, AHU 7D, fans and ductwork
were installed and exhaust fan connections were made.
The contractor completed installation of the
condensate drain piping, duct sealing and sheet
metal connections for AHU 6D and 7D. Work continued piping heating hot water
lines, connecting the motor, mounting variable flow
devices, installing sprinkler pipe, and connecting
building automation controls for both units. The installation of the chilled water and
sprinkler piping and the condensate drains was
completed. Two air flow monitoring stations were
installed on AHU-7D and one was installed on AHU
Parking Lots 2 and 6 (between the
Army Parkway entrance
road and the Navy Parkway exit road) are being leveled,
paved and painted. The paving contractor repaired the driveway
that connects
Campus Road to
Moss Street. Parking Lots 2 and 6 were paved and repairs
to the Moss Street entrance driveway are
underway. The contractor made repairs to two damaged
water lines and constructed the concrete forms for
various concrete road and apron repairs.
Here are highlights of work
that has been accomplished during the past two

In "The Loneliest Planet," an engaged couple takes a backpacking hike over the beautiful but rugged trails of the Caucasus Mountains in the central European republic of Georgia. Midway on their trek, I was reminded of advice I once heard: "Never marry anyone without first taking a three-day bus trip with them."
Not much was clear to me about Alex (Gael Garcia Bernal) and Nica (Hani Furstenberg): not where they're from, or how they met, or what paths they're taking in life, or even why they decided to make this hike. It's not a dangerous mountain adventure, more of a long slog, which seems all the longer to us because the writer-director, Julia Loktev, likes to pull back for a long shot and simply watch them plodding for long periods.
They've hired a local named Dato (Bidzina Gujabidze) to guide them. English is the only language they have in common, although Alex and Nica speak it with different accents, and Dato speaks it hardly at all. They hired Dato in a village near the start of their walk, after enduring one of those vaguely ominous evenings in a tavern where the visiting foreigners attract a lot of scrutiny. A bearded local guy looms over Nica and asks her to dance, and the other bearded local guys study Alex to see how he feels about this. Alex smiles like a good sport, although that isn't how he's feeling at the moment.
On the trail, things seem idyllic for a while, as the couple chatter and flirt. Nica, somewhat younger than Alex, has one of those Michelle Williams faces that projects niceness and vulnerability. What does Dato see, and what does he think of it? Two men and a woman, miles from anywhere. Will it all come down to that?
Dato tries to be friendly, making unintelligible small talk so murky that while listening even we smile as if trying to be good sports. There is an extremely alarming encounter with a group of heavily armed people, perhaps members of an outlawed political group, that finally ends with the most ominous member relaxing and hugging Alex, as if forgiving him for being himself.
Other events unfold, perhaps unremarkable in themselves, but accumulating into psychic baggage they must add to their backpacks. None of this is punched up dramatically; Loktev's favorite visual is the long shot; she likes indistinct night scenes and often arranges the characters in widely spaced groupings. We understand things are happening under the surface.
All of this grows tiresome. We're given no particular reason at the outset of "The Loneliest Planet" to care about these people, our interest doesn't grow along the way, the landscape grows repetitive, the director's approach is aggressively minimalist, and if you ask me, this romance was not made in heaven.
The recent #CancelColbert campaign on Twitter raises all kinds of issues about racism, but also about hashtag activism.

Exploring the Linux-based Zeus load balancer
On today's networks, distributing requests in a cluster of web servers requires more than just assigning the requests in a round robin. The Zeus ZXTM 7400 appliance demonstrates the technical finesse necessary to keep busy websites running.
Even the most powerful web server eventually reaches its limit. Getting help isn't a problem; the load redistribution can be complicated. Each server cluster needs to distribute requests intelligently to use resources in a meaningful way, and the client should not notice what is going on behind the scenes. One way of achieving this is the ZXTM 7400 appliance by Zeus Technology [1], which I recently tested. Techniques Load balancers distinguish between physical servers and virtual IPs (VIPs). In this case, the physical servers are web servers. Each web server has a unique IP (real IP, or RIP). The VIP is only configured on the load balancer.

The open source movement enlarges its shieldMarch 6, 2012: 10:20 AM ET
A consortium of powerful technology companies is expanding its patent shield to deter lawsuits.
By Roger Parloff, senior editor
FORTUNE -- An alliance of technology corporations, including IBM, is expanding the scope of patent protection it provides to developers, vendors, and users of open source software such as Linux. The move cuts against the grain of major companies going after each other, filing suit over patent infringement.
The consortium, known as the Open Invention Network, already provides an array of patent protections to certain Linux and open-source applications found on corporate data-center and back-office servers. Today's announcement will extend those protections to more than 700 additional open-source software packages, including Android, Google's (GOOG) smartphone operating system; OpenJDK, a popular programmers' development kit; and applications relating to network management and security. "As the Linux community expands," says the network's CEO Keith Bergelt, "we've had to broaden the aperture of our protections."
OIN was formed in 2005 by IBM (IBM), Novel, Philips, Red Hat, Sony (SNE), and NEC (NIPNF) to foster a cooperative environment in which free and open-source software (FOSS) could thrive. Today the OIN's original charter members form the hub of a community that includes more than 400 "licensee" companies, including such giants as Google, Oracle (ORCL), Yahoo (YHOO), Fujitsu (FJTSY), LG Electronics (LGL), and, as of the past year, recent signatories like Facebook, Twitter, and Cisco (CSCO).
MORE: The etiquette of divorce
Free and open-source software is written collaboratively by independent programmers and, by its licensing terms, confers certain "freedoms" upon users that are usually forbidden by proprietary software companies, like Microsoft (MSFT). These freedoms include the right to see the software's source code, alter it, copy it, and redistribute it. The best known open-source product is Linux, or GNU/Linux, a complete open-source operating system that quickly became popular among Fortune 500 corporations for use on data-center servers. Patents threaten the free-and-open-source eco-system, however, in that none of the key open-source freedoms can be practiced if an outsider can establish that a given piece of software infringes a valid patent he holds.
OIN has, therefore, acquired a defensive portfolio of strategic patents which it makes available, royalty free, to companies that commit not to assert their own patents against members of the Linux community. Every licensee also then enjoys royalty-free protection from every other licensee's patent portfolio, at least as it relates to the specific Linux applications that are designated in the license. Today, the licensees' collective portfolio includes more than 350,000 patents and applications.
Because OIN's original definition of Linux no longer reflects the breadth of Linux's actual usage, OIN is expanding that definition. As a result of the change, for instance, Linux-based Android—today the leading smartphone operating system—will become covered by the OIN definition. (According to the comScore metrics service, Android had 47.3% market share as of December. Apple (AAPL) was second, with 29.6%.)
Bergelt is optimistic, he adds, that additional companies will be signing OIN licenses at an accelerating pace within the next year or two, and that these new members might include, for instance, Samsung, Intel (INTC), Huawei, and Dell (DELL), which are "all making major investments in Linux and open source." He suggests that at some point the network will reach a tipping point at which companies that have not joined up may feel increasingly isolated. "You work with people you're comfortable with," he says. "If you're not a licensee, you might be seen as not committed to Linux or open source."

I write this with a broken heart as I think of the Higdon family and their recent loss. The burglary that occurred at their home as they were at their son's funeral is unthinkable in our community, and yet it happened.
It happened here, where we do not give a thought to such things, here where we are disgusted to hear of such a thing. This could be and should be our wake-up call — a call to action to keep this from becoming the usual and expected occurrence in our county.
